apparently a contractor working on the u.s. embassy rounded up some Filipinos and sent them to work in iraq as slaves
video is from a hearing at the oversight committee http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evRPwwyno_c |

well that does sound pretty terrible, but a couple things:
1. He mentioned it was a kuwaiti contractor, so I'm not sure what should be done to discipline them. I also don't see how the guy can be quoting OSHA guidelines when it's filipinos working for a kuwaiti contractor in Iraq. 2. Although it does look like they were misled/kidnapped, I didn't see any mention of whether they were paid or not, so I dunno that I'd call them slaves. |
